SOUND SYMPOSIUM XIV: ...see you in 2 years!

Well, THAT'S IT! ...Sound Symposium, Newfoundland's own 10 day international festival of new music and performing arts drops the curtain for another two years. Yes, it takes two years to organize an international event of this size. As I've said before, As arts event experiences, Sound Symposium is ranked up there with Burning Man in Nevada, The Fringe in Edinburgh and Festival in the Desert in Mali.

Just one of the amazing nights at Sound Symposium is the Cape Spear Project where composer Adam Staple (above) conducts a concert with many of the diverse Sound Symposium artists.

Most of the photos are in the SoundSymposium2008 folder in the left side column. Email me if you have any questions or feel free to leave your Sound Sympsoium experience in our comments section.

...now its back to work, I guess.
